Immense Gold Discovery.

Chillson brothers, of Anaheim, who
made a grand discovery OF gold and
silver in Arizona few years ago and
sold their mine at round sum, have
be9n for a long time prospecting in the
San Jacinto mountains, about ninety
miles east of Los Angeles, and have
discovered a mammoth gold mine
that appears to them to eclipse any
gold discovery ever made in the world.
Being mining men they did not shout
at their first surface discoveries, but
went to work in earnest to ascertain
the quality of the rock beneath the
surface. They accordingly sunk a
shaft forty feet deep and found the rock
richer in gold as they proceeded down
wards. They call the rock worth $40
per ton, while the Grass Valley rock
pays at 81 per ton. Some samples
which they brought to town yesterday
were marvelously rich, going $500
per ton.
The ledge is of enormous size and
has fallen into the hands of young and
enterprising miners who will push the
development of it as fast as men
and machinery can do it. A
stamp mill will be erected as
soon as possible and the work
of reduction go merrily on. The
mountains are well timbered and
watered, so that no delay may occur
for lack of fuel and water. The mine
may be reached from the San Cor
gonia station, ON the Southern Pacific
railway, or from Perris station, on the
California Southern, from which place
it is about forty miles. Should the
discovery "pan out" as expected il
will be a great thing for South Califor-
MIA.

Good News Followed by Bark
Shadows.


Hon. Richard Eagan, OF San Juan
Capistrano, was in the city yesterday,
and reports the boom in full blast at
that place. The work of railroad
building is going on with a rush.
Nearly the whole line of the Califor-
mia Central is graded from Santa Ana
to Oceanside, where it unites with the
California Southern. Track-layiAg is
proceeding at the rate of a mile and a
half day. AT that rate, if ties and
rails hold out, the cars can reach San
Juan by-the-Sea some time next
week. 1t is hoped that the ears will
be there in time to return home the
city editor of the HERALD and his
charming wife, to say nothing of his
trained dog, and guns innumerable,
and the bear meat and venison that
ne has bagged in that classic hunting
ground. A council of war has been
held by all the wild animals, and the
said editor has been requested to
leave that country, under pain of
their high displeasure at himself, his
guns and his dog Patrick. He thinks
he can hold the fort till the first OF
September, unless the bears become
too demonstrative. The piscatorial
exploits of the editor aforesaid are in
comparable. His first days efforts
on the briny deep resulted in the cap
ture of pa barracuda, SO inches long.
After days sport on white boat,
with all the glare of vertical sun,
the charms of seafaring life disap-
peared, and the manipulation of the
pencil took kindly to the ambrosial
retreats OF the mountains for his
daily amusements.

Wants am Injunction.

The North Pasadena Land and
Water Company commenced suit in
the Superior Court yesterday against
w. H. Thompson to recover $500
damages. The plaintiff alleges that
the company supplies large number
of people with water, and it becoming
necessary to repair its pipes force OF
men were sent to do this. The
defendant refused to allow the men to
work on a certain piece of land and
threatened to shoot them with shot
gun. The plaintiff asks for an injunc-
ton preventing the defendant from
interfering with the work and to re-
cover $500 damages already incurred.
